NEW NOW NEXT:

A new survey that ranks where gay men are happiest by country reveals nothing we hadn’t known before: Gay men are happiest in Canada and northern Europe, specifically the Nordic region, while gay men in some African and Middle Eastern nations, where homosexuality is punishable by death, are the most unhappy.

The statistics were gathered from 115,000 gay men around the world by Amsterdam-based gay dating app Planet Romeo in collaboration with Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz in Germany, the Washington Post reports.

Interestingly enough, 58 percent of those surveyed in the top 20 countries considered gay apps and online dating sites “very important,” while 76 percent of those surveyed in the bottom 20 countries considered them “very important.”

  1. seeing the colorized map brought tears to my eyes.
    so many suffer. so many fear for their lives.
    thanks for posting this. it’s a stark reminder.

  2. I should probably move to Canada or Europe, not too happy here, haven’t found the right guy yet I guess is part of it.

  3. Sadly, there are still plenty of places on our world, where if you are anything but purely heterosexual, you can stand a big chance that you will experience treatment like being beaten, arrested or even put to death by the state or surely from those like the Taliban and ISIL who make themselves the self-appointed “guardians of Allah” and such and will do bad things to such people.

    It is also a bad thing that we have some of our fundamentalist religious organizations that helped pass laws in places like Uganda and other African countries that people who are gay can be left to rot in prison. for life.

    GLBT people as a rule, here in the US, may not yet have all of their “unalienable rights” granted to them as US citizens, but it is not nearly as bad here as it once was.

  4. That is very ridiculous, hypocrite and shameful that USA come in 26 on this other hand this country goes around to promote freedom, democracy, human rights, equality on and on but they do not live up their moral compas.

  5. Shocking to see how LGTB are still condemned in lots of countries. There is still a long way to go, especially when the Roman Catholic Church gives the reaction to the great results of the Irish referendum on same-sex marriage: ‘a defeat for humanity’. Free men and women need to stand up for the LGTB who can’t be who they are.

  6. Frustrating but not surprising. The Bible Belt here is just out of control. Thankfully I’m far enough removed….
